Harsh Metalloys, a well-respected name in Mumbai, India, stands out as a top manufacturer and supplier of Stainless Steel 440B Nuts. These nuts are celebrated for their impressive strength, hardness, and decent resistance to corrosion. Grade 440B is a high-carbon martensitic stainless steel that boasts better hardenability than its lower-carbon counterparts. Our 440B nuts come in a variety of sizes, threads, and specifications, catering to the diverse fastening requirements of precision-focused industries. Designed for applications that demand durability and wear resistance, these nuts find their place in automotive, tooling, aerospace, mechanical equipment, and other high-performance industrial settings.
When it comes to composition and mechanical properties, Stainless Steel 440B Nuts generally consist of 16–18% Chromium and 0.75–0.95% Carbon, along with trace amounts of Manganese, Silicon, and Molybdenum. With the right heat treatment, 440B can achieve a Rockwell hardness of 55 HRC or even higher. It delivers a tensile strength that surpasses 725 MPa and maintains good mechanical stability. Although it’s not as corrosion-resistant as austenitic stainless steels, it performs admirably in mildly corrosive and dry conditions. These nuts excel in wear resistance, making them perfect for applications that require reliable fastening performance under mechanical stress and high temperatures.
